I will start with the belt and see what I can find. Honestly the noise doesn't start until about 10 min of driving. How long can I run the car on jdle the car without the belt?

Ok I get the sense that you haven't done much mechanical work or diagnostics on cars.
So I will try to help you the best I can.
Very first thing ......get familiar with what your going to do.
So pull the cover behind the seats and have a good look at the fan belt.
Look at how it is routed...look at how you would remove it.
get all the tools you would need to remove it.
Maybe even remove it and put it back on so you know whats what.
So now you know whats what.
With the cover behind the seats still off take the car for a spin and get the noise going.
Then pull into your work space ...remove the belt and run the car for a few minutes.....3-4....
Use your senses you should if know your car is getting hot long before it gets too hot.
They begin to run different..some sound different...or you can smell that it is hot.. or you may see something that says it is hot.
If you follow and do what I suggest it should only take you a very short time... 2-3 to remove the belt and restart the car.
Things are not going to change much in 2-3 minute of engine off time.
Lets see what you find and go from there.
How soon after replacing the exhaust did this issue start.???
Your exhaust does not look properly mounted from what little I can see.
It doesn't sound right to me either....but it is a video.
